Political Panel - Voters
Canada Now| Northbeat | Feb. 11

With only days left before voters head to the polls, our political panel
discusses what might be on the minds of citizens of Nunavut before they
cast their ballots. Northbeat host Jennifer Tilden speaks with Nunatsiaq
News' Jim Bell and law student Susan Enuaroq.

Nunavut is the only jurisdiction in the country where people of European
descent are not the majority. There were hopes, when the territory was
created in 1999, that the values and language of the Inuit would dominate
public life. But that hasn't been the case so far, and in Nunavut, like
the rest of Canada, English remains the working tongue.

and culture issue with Northbeat host Carol Morin in English. Watch
